i did want to ask a question about boosting my 96 accord ex coupe it is auto but i wanted to get a lil more ummmph outta her maybe 5psi and eventually drop a manual or build the tranny up a bit either way i wanted to see what you guys recommend for myself it has the f22b1 motor and i wanna get started with a cheap turbo kit i was lookin at

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

but i dont know what else i would need to make this all work IE B.O.V. or intercooler Ive never boosted a car before so im not sure how this all works

i know its not the best kit but i dont have piles of money around so i wanted something i could start with and build on

also if you could give me tips as far as running a turbo with an auto i know some work has to be done to the tranny to support the boost if you could chime in on whats good for parts ect

any info is appreciated i have no clue about turbos or boost

p.s. if ne of you live in the new england area especially s.NH or Boston north hmu im lookin for a carbon fiber hood and trunk as well so if you want to sell it i want to buy it

otherwise hello and thanks !

 

your gonna need to research turbo basics....

You can do 5psi... But your tranny will break eventually... Hard to say how fast cuz no one knows how you drive or the condition of your tranny now... An oil cooler will help... Its anyones guess exactly how much tho...


Just make sure you have a 5 speed ready to go... And stay away from h22 trannies cuz the gears are too close for the daily driving an f22..

 

If you have no clue about boost and you don't have a lot of money to attempt a project of this nature then leave your car stock.

 

i don't have a clue which is why im on here asking so i don't know why you've wasted your time to tell me if i don't know don't do it im sure you weren't born with the knowledge so you started somewhere so if you don't want to help stop wasting your time posting on my thread

@ SOLO where would you recommend i look to research

 

Go to a barnes and noble.. they have a car books about the more technical aspects of taking on a task like this.
